Sunrise Police present annual red‑light camera report: 21,262 violations, city retains $1.39 million
Deputy Chief Dana Swisher presented the Sunrise Police Department’s annual red‑light camera program statistics, as required by Florida Statute 316.0083, covering July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025.

Key figures presented by the deputy chief:

- Total violations recorded: 21,262.
- Violations paid: 12,260.
- Violations contested: 131; contested violations upheld: 92; citations dismissed: 9.
- Violations issued as uniform traffic citations: 6,954 (includes right‑turn on red enforcement where applicable; right‑turn violations counted: 1,859).
- Total paid amount: $2,503,742.52. Of that total, $1,109,045.12 was remitted to the State of Florida Department of Revenue and $1,394,697.40 was retained by the City of Sunrise.

Deputy Chief Swisher and commissioners discussed recidivism: staff reported a low repeat‑offender rate. According to the deputy chief, roughly 6.7% of people received a second notice and about 1.3% received three or more notices; the program’s year‑to‑year data show declines in fatalities and serious collisions at monitored intersections.

Commissioner follow‑up request

Commissioners asked staff to provide more granular recidivism data going forward — for example, the share of drivers who receive a second or third citation — to help measure behavior change. The deputy chief said those statistics are available and can be provided in future reports.

Ending: The presentation closed with staff confirming the program’s statutory report and offering to return with more detailed recidivism metrics on request.
